    Open Mic Blast from the Past

    Some guy I just friended on FB recorded all these in the early 1990's. I guess they're more interesting to me than anyone else, but i think it gives a pretty good summary of the way I come across in person. So for anyone who doesn't appreciate the way I write - here's some more for you to not...

    Why do things have to be so complex?

    Just about anything I have seen asked or can imagine being asked on this forum can be answered with, "Treat others the way you would want to be treated, and don't settle for anything less than that for yourself." Why do folks seem to think we and our situations are so "unique" that this does...

    Discussion on Forum Sociology and Interpersonal Dynamics

    The thing is - I hate it when people pussy-foot around something because they "don't want to hurt my feelings". To me, it is insulting, condescending, like saying "you can't HANDLE the truth™ being told to you, so we need to dress it up, put a silk hat on a pig, make things look like something...

    Old School BBS's

    Dude have you seen the BBS Documentary? Google: BBS Documentary I was on a DDial in the late 80's. A couple people I know from there are in the documentary. I wish I had known about it when they were interviewing for it and I would have been in it too. [I must beg to differ though] - we...

    Thank you for the lovely morning

    To the rest of you: Ceoli and I met in person for the first time this morning. We had breakfast, went to a UU church-service, and had a second "breakfast" with some of the nice folks from church. (We had originally planned to visit the Aquarium but it wasn't meant to be. Maybe next time!) I...

    Quoting Text Pasted into a Message

    When you want to quote something that you have cut and pasted into the middle of a post, look at the icons above the text field and find the "bubble" like the thing they use in comics to put the words of whoever is talking. It is between the # sign and the icon with the mountains and sun. If...

    Women's Flat-Track Roller-Derby

    Well folks, I'm finally going to the "Fresh Meat" night with the NH Roller Derby http://www.nhrollerderby.com/join.html like I have been saying I would after the summer is over. Summer is over (at least according to the calendar). Maybe this will help me work out some aggression and boost my...

    The Invention of Lying

    This movie was filmed in my hometown, where I live now. I just watched the trailer and I can recognize actual streets, buildings, and businesses. If you want to see Beautiful Downtown Lowell, MA, go and see this movie, I'm sure it's cheaper than a bus ticket (for a matinee anyway)! (and it...

    Being by yourself

    This was mentioned in another thread, and I was wondering if folks would sound off about it. Who (besides RedPepper) is poly because they can't stand being alone? Who likes being alone despite the fact that they can be in love with more than one person at a time? What are people's thoughts...

    Foodie-porn!

    Food-porn is about looking at pictures of food, for the most part, and watching it on cooking shows where the focus is not on a celebrity chef but on the food itself. I suppose it could be used as a euphemism for food as an aphrodisiac if you wanted it to be. I have a friend on Fakebook and we...

    Recreational Nudity

    So, I thought this might be a good topic because Husband and I like to camp and swim at clothing-optional places (abbreviated to c/o). I cringe at being labeled a "nudist" just because I like to do this, but I guess that is what I am by definition. However, I prefer to focus on the "optional"...

    Misc Sub-forum

    Would the admins make a sub-forum for "Miscellaneous Interests" such as hobbies, travel, pets, books, movies, etc. or whatever daily-life thing people would like to post about? I'm thinking it might help folks connect in a way that would focus on things other than JUST poly-amory... that is...
